  • Abstract
    A characterisation of cable network elements to facilitate accurate simulation and analysis for the design of digital cable networks is presented. Nonlinear and frequency-dependent blocks are proposed for modelling each network element. Complex behaviour of a network can be described by a combination of these simple blocks. The technique is illustrated by application to a cable amplifier.
